You've got to face the fact   That in the world today      They try and take away the blue skies   And all the children that play   But it's a curious fact   In every hour in every place   That when the right time arrives   It feels so good to be alive      Somebody      Can't you see   I'm a boy out of fashion      Somebody      I'm not part of any nation   Now I'm back in circulation      When the right time arrives will you be there   Tomorrow or a hundred years from now   I've wasted years just keepin' movin' on   It never entered my head it was here all along   Don't ask me why just lead me on      Somebody      Talk to me   I can hear what you're saying      Somebody      Tired of the city air   If I gave you the future would you meet me there      I used to stumble and fall   I'd run to everyone that called   Since you appeared it's been a lot of fun   Between you and me, between the truth and a lie      You have a husband and I have a wife   And when you ask me why with your kissing eyes   How could we be so wrong, oh my oh my oh my   You'll always be there the same as any other      You like a sister and me like a brother   Like all the times I used to dream      Somebody      Smile at me   Let me know that you're near me      Somebody   I can see that you're near me   It's the only sound on the city street   If I sing you my song will you move your feet      Somebody   Every moment you're nearer   I'm broken down and in a mess   Your love is all that I confess      Somebody   Now I know that you're near me      I don't mean to shock, I don't mean to scare      But the world won't change and I don't care      I used to dream   One day somebody near me   I can't believe you're making me      A rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief   There's a strange new rhythm in my life   It burns like the sun and cuts like a knife      Everybody chic or shoddy   Turn it loose and use your body
